Description

The Sidet plugin turns a new tab into a chat home page where you can ask questions, pin common commands and pull notes, selections, web pages or images into the conversation. It keeps the active chat in the main pane instead of squeezing it into a side panel, while a right sidebar handles search, pinning, folders, archiving and export. The plugin also adds local knowledge base lookup, web clipping, online search and wiki card drafting, with a preview before anything is written back to notes. Model settings are managed per service and chats stay separate from note files until you confirm a write action.

修复:移动端输入框

  • 在 iPhone 上轻点主页输入框,光标和键盘会立即出现并保持,不再随机收回。这是 0.3.3 发行说明中披露的问题,本版已从源码修复,并经 iPhone 真机验证。长按选择文字等输入手势不受影响,点按输入框以外的位置仍会收起键盘;快速连续两次点按时仍可能有不到一秒的短暂闪跳,最终光标回到输入框内。
  • 手机上收起或展开侧栏时,主页输入框不再相对页面左右漂移,而是随页面一起移动,收展结束后停在正确位置;桌面端窗口较窄时同理。

调整:设置页

  • 打开「设置 → Sidet」后,原来的整页设置改为六个子页:主页、URL 启动、模型服务、数据导出、关于、使用须知。入口页列出带各自图标的六个子页并分成两组(主页 / URL 启动 / 模型服务,数据导出 / 关于 / 使用须知),点击进入对应页面;各页内容、行为与数据不变,设置搜索仍可命中各页。
  • 「关于」页只保留插件名称、版本号、作者和问题反馈;使用与备份、模型与 API、隐私、版权的说明移到「使用须知」页。
  • Obsidian 设置窗口左侧的插件列表中,Sidet 一行显示自己的图标。
  • 在低于 1.13 的 Obsidian 版本上,设置页仍按旧的一整页形式显示。

调整:知识库命中列表

  • 在知识库模式下发送检索后,命中的文件列表出现在这条回复的底部,点击文件即可打开对应笔记;不再出现在发出的提问气泡里。
  • 回复正文只保留检索范围、命中数和每条命中的类型、匹配词与片段,去掉了与片段重复的摘要和多余说明。

调整:插件介绍行

  • 在 Obsidian 的插件列表和官方目录中,Sidet 的介绍行改为中文在前、英文在后的同一句话:流畅自然的 AI 对话体验,移动端也出色。A smooth, natural AI chat experience that also works great on mobile.

English Summary

Tapping the Sidet home input box on iPhone now focuses it right away and keeps the cursor and keyboard open; the intermittent focus loss disclosed with the 0.3.3 release notes is fixed in this release. Typing gestures such as long-press selection keep working, and tapping outside the input box still closes the keyboard. Very rapid double-taps can still flash for a moment, but the cursor ends up in the input box.

When the sidebars open or close on mobile, the home input box moves together with the page instead of drifting sideways relative to it; the same applies to narrow desktop windows.

Opening Sidet's settings now shows a navigation list of six sub-pages — Home, URL launcher, Model service, Data export, About, and Usage notes — split into two groups, each with its own icon. The About page keeps the plugin name, version, author, and feedback channels; the usage-and-backup, model-and-API, privacy, and copyright notes have moved to the Usage notes page. Sidet's row in Obsidian's settings sidebar shows its own icon. On Obsidian versions older than 1.13, the settings page still appears as the previous single scrolling page.

In knowledge-base mode, the list of matched files now appears at the bottom of the AI reply, and tapping a file opens the note directly; it no longer sits inside the sent question bubble. The reply itself keeps only the search scope, the match count, and type, terms, and excerpt per hit — duplicate summaries and extra advice text are removed.

The one-line description shown in Obsidian's plugin list and on the official catalog now comes in Chinese first, with the same sentence in English: 流畅自然的 AI 对话体验,移动端也出色。A smooth, natural AI chat experience that also works great on mobile.

Sidet 思得

把 Obsidian 的新标签页变成 AI 对话主页,笔记、选区、网页与图片都可随需带入对话。

同时,任意命令——无论来自 Obsidian 原生还是其他插件——均可设为主页图标,或绑定为 URL 供快捷键一键调用。

1. 主要功能

功能 说明
🏠 主页与常用命令 新建标签页时打开或聚焦 Sidet 主页;已经位于主页时可继续打开原生空白页。常用的 Sidet、Obsidian 和其他插件命令可以固定在主页。
💬 对话 支持连续对话、流式回复、历史记录和模型切换。
📥 笔记与资料 可以带入当前笔记、选区、网页和图片。
📚 知识库 可以选择一个知识库或全部知识库,检索库内已有笔记;当前使用本地关键词检索。
🗂️ Wiki 整理 可以把当前输入整理成 Wiki 卡片草稿,也可以把对话或笔记整理到知识库,并为文件夹创建 Index.md。
🌐 网页与联网搜索 可以把指定网页加入对话,也可以在当前对话中打开联网搜索。
📝 内容写回 整理结果先预览,再选择新建笔记、追加到现有笔记或改写指定笔记。
📂 会话管理 会话列表位于 Obsidian 右侧边栏,可以新建、搜索、置顶、分类和切换对话,也可以归档或导出已有对话。归档后的对话可在设置中恢复或删除。
📱 电脑与手机 对话内容使用中间的主标签页,右侧边栏用于管理会话。手机端对输入、键盘、滚动和页面布局做了单独适配。

2. 一次完整使用

  1. 新建 Obsidian 标签页,打开或聚焦 Sidet 主页。
  2. 直接输入问题,或者先选择知识库、网页剪藏、联网搜索或 Wiki 卡片。
  3. 根据需要加入当前笔记、选区、网页或图片。
  4. 在对话中继续提问、整理和修改。
  5. 需要保存时先查看预览,再确认写入 Obsidian;暂时不保存的内容可以留在会话记录中。

3. 主聊天区与右侧边栏

Sidet 把正在使用的对话放在 Obsidian 中间的主标签页,右侧边栏只保留会话列表。点击列表中的会话,会在主标签页中打开,不会把聊天内容挤在狭窄的侧栏里。

右侧边栏会在工作区启动后自动恢复,也可以通过命令面板的“打开对话列表”重新打开。列表可以新建对话、按标题搜索、置顶常用对话、创建文件夹并整理会话。每条对话的菜单还提供移动到文件夹、归档和导出;当前打开的对话会在列表中标出。

4. 主页快捷方式

主页最多可以固定 8 个命令。Obsidian 命令和其他插件的命令都可以加入;Sidet 自有命令中可固定的是“打开 Sidet”“打开对话列表”“新建对话”,依赖活动上下文或需要写入确认的命令不进主页和 URL 入口。固定项可以调整顺序和图标。新建标签页时,如果没有 Sidet 主页会创建一页;主页在后台时会聚焦已有页面;已经位于主页时才会打开 Obsidian 原生空白页。

5. URL 启动

Sidet 内置“打开新对话”和“导入剪贴板”两条 Obsidian URL。还可以为常用命令设置最多 8 条自定义 URL。

这些链接可以配合手机快捷指令、桌面快捷方式或其他应用使用。点击链接后,Sidet 会打开新对话、导入剪贴板内容,或者运行已经绑定的命令。

6. 模型服务

Sidet 可以保存多条模型配置。每条配置分别设置服务商、模型、接口地址和 API Key,也可以指定一条默认模型。

新对话使用当前默认模型,已经创建的对话继续使用原来的模型。删除正在使用的模型后,对应对话会改用当前默认模型。API Key 保存在 Obsidian 的 SecretStorage 中,不写入对话记录或普通插件设置。

Sidet 不附带模型账号。模型服务、账号、API Key、调用费用和使用限制由用户自行准备和管理。

7. 知识库与 Wiki

知识库可以按单个知识库或全部知识库进行检索。当前检索在本地按关键词完成,不调用模型。命中结果附在回复底部,每条显示类型、匹配方式和命中片段,点击可以直接打开对应笔记。

需要整理新内容时,可以把当前对话或当前笔记整理成知识卡片;执行前会先给出整理计划或内容预览。

知识库使用 Index.md 作为文件夹入口。Sidet 可以为指定文件夹创建知识库根页;历史 Wiki 卡片的格式维护位于“设置 → Sidet → 数据导出”,执行前会再次确认。文件只在用户确认后创建或修改。

8. 网页与联网搜索

遇到一篇明确的网页,可以输入网址,把网页正文加入当前对话。需要查询外部资料时,可以打开联网搜索;Sidet 会先生成搜索词,再搜索并按需读取页面,最后给出回答和来源。

知识库检索和联网搜索需要分别使用,不能同时开启。已经加入笔记、网页或图片等明确材料时,Sidet 会按普通资料对话处理。

9. 对话、导出与笔记

对话默认保存在插件数据中,不会因为开始对话就在笔记库里生成 Markdown 文件。需要保存时,可以使用以下方式:

  • 将当前对话导出为 Markdown;
  • 新建一篇笔记;
  • 追加到现有笔记;
  • 改写指定笔记;
  • 把当前对话或笔记整理到知识库。

新建、追加和改写都会先显示预览,由用户确认后执行。导出目录可以在设置中修改;留空时使用 Sidet 的默认导出目录。

不再使用的对话可以归档。归档后的对话保留为只读内容,可以在设置中恢复或删除。

10. 数据与隐私

数据 保存在哪
对话记录、会话索引与插件设置 本地插件数据
各模型配置的 API Key Obsidian SecretStorage(设备与仓库隔离)
  • 作者不收集用户的 API Key、对话内容、笔记内容或其他个人信息;
  • 使用云端模型、联网搜索或网页服务时,完成请求所需的内容会进入用户自行选择的第三方服务链路。相关服务的费用、限制和数据处理规则以对应服务商为准;
  • Sidet 不会默认改动笔记,也不在后台自动执行任务。涉及创建、追加或改写笔记的操作都需要用户确认;
  • 重要笔记仍建议保留独立备份。

11. 当前使用范围

Sidet 目前以用户主动输入、选择和确认为主。联网功能用于搜索和引用网页,不提供完整浏览器的地址栏、标签页、登录态和浏览历史管理。知识库当前使用本地关键词检索,不做跨目录自动聚合。

如果日常工作主要在 Obsidian 中完成,可以从 Sidet 主页开始提问、查找自己的知识、处理网页资料或运行常用命令,需要保留的结果再写回笔记。

Sidet 需要 Obsidian 1.11.4 或更高版本。
